When did this crash happen? About 10 years ago?

~~~HEAVY sarcasm~~~

So much has happened this summer that it’s hard to remember that dreadful crash in the Ukraine.

They drop automatically on depressurization.

Not hard to believe a few pax got them on before total breakup.

The crash site/crime scene was so bastardized/contaminated that I seriously doubt we will ever know the precise truth. Simply because the mask was wrapped around him, does not mean he put it on.

Depressurization, impact with hard objects (even runways-hard landings), turbulence, etc. will cause oxygen masks to drop. I've witnessed it first hand. Not pleasant. Normally accompanied by loud screaming and yelling...
